“Truce” was secretly known as “The Laundry Song” by the Jars of Clay band members.
The reason: it was written in a laundry room in the middle of Kansas and just started writing while waiting for their laundry.

[Verse 1]
Faultless in the eyes that I could never open wide enough to see me through
Much to my surprise it never orbits 'round the things you should hold me to
[Pre-Chorus]
I stand here wondering
I'm waiting
[Chorus]
My ear is twisted in all the thoughts
A glimpse of truce just because
It's always almost never close
I close my eyes, hide the distance
[Verse 2]
Enchanted by the face of peace and when it turns to sunken eyes and waterfalls
Unsatisfied with simple things entangled in the cords, I can't take any calls
[Pre-Chorus]
I stand here wondering
I'm waiting
[Chorus]
My ear is twisted in all the thoughts
A glimpse of truce just because
It's always almost never close
I close my eyes, hide the distance
[Bridge]
Waiting around for some kind of peace
Hoping you find me in my need
[Interlude]
My ear is twisted
A glimpse of truce just because
[Chorus]
My ear is twisted in all the thoughts
A glimpse of truce just because
It's always almost never close
I close my eyes, hide the distance
